As we dock this morning the skies are sunny and the air about 60 degrees. It is forecast to be 70 by 9:30 and 74 by noon. Another perfect cruising day.
There is not much here that entices me to leave the ship. A leisurely breakfast in "The World Fresh Marketplace", commonly know as the buffet. For a few hours the ship is quite empty, but that doesn't last as passengers soon begin to return.
Yesterday Lynn did a little laundry. Yes self sevice, kindof operated by your medallion. Use your medallion to pay for a token to operate the washers and dryers. About $6.00 for a load. Much better than $35 or $40 for the ship to do. I haven't cruised Princess enough to get free laundry.
This is the first time that everyone is not back to the ship on time. Fortunately they did make it before departure. The captain made it very clear he had to leave at his scheduled time and he would not delay departure. We are headed towards the St Lawrence seaway and there are numerous speed restrictions in place so he would be unable to make up any lost time.
We will be geting close to where the possibility of seeing whales gets pretty good. Steve, the other Steve, my son in law, finds a website that shows the data being received from transponders used to track whales. Now they just need to swim our way.
Dinner is good as usual. I have southwestern white bean chili. We decide to skip the show, instead opting for the piano bar. One of my favorite venues, but my first stop there this cruise. I'm just not the night owl I used to be.
Unfortunately there was a very loud passenger at the next table that talked so loud he overpowered the entertainer.
Everyone in the room had little choice but to hearing his trucking, restaurant and "you tube" production stories.
The following seas pick up to to 5 feet or as we head towards the St Lawrence Seaway. The ship remains very stable with no sense of motion.
Tomorrow will be a "sea day" as we head towards Saguenay.
